  2. You know im glad you posted this… I was going to get a little goat to help mow a little. I can only catch those stupid coons one to a time in my little trap. There is a bl.. oh wait better not say that… i’ll have those folks on me like they got all up on you about your vidor of afropepper… but there is this man down in Pt Arthur that will by as many of those coons as i can catch and he actually pays me for the evil creatures.. He skins em and bbqs them. Me personally I aint got that hungry

  6. My goats stood by and watched while three nights in a row a bobcat came in and drug out a chicken. Guess they thought it was none of their business. I now have a miniature donkey on guard. No more issues other than lazy goats!

  9. Goats are social animals, they don’t like being alone. You should give that one a friend.

  12. Chickens can acually protect goats from rattle snakes. Not only will they kill them, but are also protected by their feathers from the snake bits.

  19. my chickens pasture with my goats…and it does seem to work in keeping predators at bay….including hawks….they don’t seem to trust larger animals around…..not that I think a goat would protect a chicken….but, if it works….

  21. I have the same situation, and have noticed the same thing. In fact I have one little hen that the other chickens pick on so badly… That I’ve left her out all summer, with the goats. She sleeps in an open fronted shed! NO PROBLEM! She sleeps in there with 2 goats. Great post Sam!!! Thumbs up!

  22. Dude, that’s pretty cool to know.
    but, if you want a REALLY good survival bird…..Ducks.
    Bigger, TOUGHER Shelled Eggs, and same taste.
    biggest draw….They are VERY quiet.
    clip their wings and give them a pond…..good fowl times.
